Melbourne Renegades and Adelaide Strikers are fighting for the third and fourth spots in the points table.

This is the final game for both teams and a must-win as well. Strikers need to win this game to keep their hopes alive, but even then their chances look grim owing to a poor net run rate.

The wickets have been very sporting in BBL 2023. The new ball has done a bit but the constant pace and bounce have helped the batters as well. The spinners have also enjoyed bowling owing to large boundaries. Expect another good cricketing surface in this crucial game.
